Aims/hypothesis The rs738409 C>G variant of the patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 3 gene (PNPLA3) increases the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with no predisposition for insulin resistance. In this study, we aimed to investigate the influence of PNPLA3 polymorphisms on liver fat content (LFC) and glucose metabolic variables, and the associations between these, during...
SummaryThis study was undertaken to assess the effect of blood glucose on BMD and interactions with age, sex, and BMI in a Taiwanese population. Both obese and non-obese people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) had higher BMD, at lumbar spine and femoral neck, compared with healthy subjects. In addition, the prevalence of osteoporosis significantly decreased with blood sugar and HbA1c. Purpose This study...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by defects in insulin secretion and action and obesity plays an important role in the deterioration of glucose metabolism. In the present study we evaluated the degree of insulin resistance and first-phase insulin secretion of β-cell in obese subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and...
